Summer~
"A deal with me" He asked chuckling.
"Yes, Mr Eden"
"Am sorry, but I don't think there is something to talk about with you. If you will excuse me..." He gave his secretary a sign to show me the way out.
"We are quite busy" He completed his statement.
Quite annoying I must say.
He seems not to know who he's dealing with."I see, then you won't mind seeing on the news tomorrow that Charles Eden isn't a gay" I smiled devilishly and he looked at me shocked and devastated.
The same look was on his secretary.
"What did you just say?"
"You heard me right, you won't mind seeing it on the news tomorrow that you aren't a gay. Oh this headline will be good, Charles Eden the gay billionaire is not who he claims to BE" I spurt stressing the BE.
"What was your name again?" He asked scratching his hair.
"Summer Shrap" I answered.
"Would you like a cup of tea?"
***********
"So, what do you mean by am not a gay" Charles asked seated in his chair with his hands intertwined.
And his head a little down like he is trying to think. I walked around his office, looking at every corner.
The smart TV placed on the wall, the fine wood table, his chairs, his safe where he probably hides the important documents, the transparent window glass where he could get a perfect view of the world outside, everything in his office screams wealth.
I know I didn't pick the wrong person.
"You know I always wanted a office like this" I blurted out and sat down on the chair facing him.
"Too bad, you couldn't get it. Am sure talking about my office isn't why you are here?" He asked rudely.
"Of course" I responded and his secretary entered with two cup of tea.
"Hmm" I muttered after a sip from the tea. "This is good, rich People really do enjoy. Am also from a rich family but believe me you are on a different class"
"Miss Shrap, am sure you aren't here to talk about how wealthy I am" He said hoarsely getting impatient.
"Ok" I raised my hands in defeat.
"So...?" I stopped and looked at his secretary. "Shouldn't she be outside, it is your secret" I shrugged while he groaned.
"She doesn't need to go outside, say whatever you have to say or go out" He almost yelled while His secretary smiled.
"Ok, easy. You aren't in the position to even yell. Am sorry, if I annoy you but that's the only thing am good at" I winked playfully.
"Like I was saying, I was born from a rich family and every rich family or individual always has their dirty secret but the thing is why will you lie about your own secret. Why will you fabricate your own secret?"
"Don't play with words, miss Shrap. Go straight to the point"
"What I meant by that is that I know you Mr Charles isn't a gay" I raised my eyebrow and I could hear the sound of his secretary gulping down.
I was expecting him to ask how I found out but he just chuckled.
"Proof, do you have proof?" He asked which just amazes me more.
He's not the type that gets scared easily and I like that....
Compared to the rich kids have met before, he's different!"What?"
"Don't tell me you came here to say nonsense without any proof" he spat out while I scoffed.
"Of course not" I picked the file Mr Dale gave to me and bring out some pictures.
"Here are some pictures of you and some girls in your penthouse, I wonder why you will go to your penthouse with these women when you clearly state you have nothing to do with ladies, the only woman in your life is your PA" I said stealing a glance on the pitiful handsome man and his sexy PA.
"These women are his business associates" his secretary retorted with a confident look.
It seems like she doesn't know who she is dealing with.
"Hmm, his business associates in his penthouse. That is new, there are so many bad records of Mr Eden in the past of him being a rapist, pervert, and most of his victims are ladies. Wow.... are they also his business associates?"
"Now, what I don't get is why did he lie that he is a gay? when he takes high interest in women. To get social sympathy, more popular or why exactly will you lie Mr Eden?" I questioned.
"Is this all you have? I thought you were going to bring ponds of information, I guess you aren't that resourceful Miss Shrap. You know I could sue you for blackmailing and stalking me, and this rape and pervert thing was my past life. Right now am interested in guys and I have nothing with those ladies in my penthouse" He uttered declining my accusations.
"Haha....." I laughed out hysterically.
"You are good, really good. I met with one of your claimed business associates and she told me this" I bring out a recorder from my pocket and played my conversation with one of the ladies he took to his penthouse.
"Mr Charles Eden isn't a gay, he is really interested in ladies. He fvcks better than any man, he is so sweet but brutal, my body are still sore from our last sex....." I stopped the recording.
"You still want more proof? she was stubborn at first but only a few amount of money bought her"
"I could arrest you right now" he threatened.
"Go ahead, then everything will be revealed to the public. Am sure that isn't what you want"
"Ok miss Shrap, what do you want?"
"I told you am here to make a deal." I stood up and head to the window.
"If you don't want to reveal what I have to the public, you just have to do one simple thing"
"Which is?" he asked.
"Marry me"
Summer~~~"Marry me" I spurted out standing in front of the window with my hands in my pocket acting like I was looking outside but the truth is am just as nervous and confused as them but at the same time desperate."What? Is this some kind of proposal or something" Charles asked totally confused by my request.I moved away from the window back to the seat with my leg crossed."Am serious, Mr Eden. In exchange to keep your secret you must marry me and support me with your shares in Shrap broadcasting corporation.""That is my offer, it is up to you whether you it take or not""Mmmh if what you said is true, then that means I hide that am straight and not a gay but then you are asking me to reveal to the public that am not gay by marrying you?""That is where you are wrong, we could do a silent wedding. People doesn't have to know about it, you just marry me, I will go living in your house silently""Wait, live in my ho
The Shrap's MansionSummer~~I kept looking at my phone for Charles call, this has been my attitude recently since we've met.Waiting for him to call, to accept my deal. It probably sounds crazy to him, but am desperate for it.With his shares supporting mine, it will be equal to Dora's shares too.All that matters now is who my dad gives his shares?Why is he not calling? Does he counts my threats useless or did I went too far.Maybe I should never have proposed a marriage."Should I call him?" I speak out loud."Call who?" My dad asked and I looked at him. That was when my attention was brought back, that I was in the presence of my parents having breakfast."What?""Who you are calling? You haven't touch your food since the maids served you" he said concerned."Is there something wrong?""Ah, I don't really have an appetite" I lied and picked the fork."Is that really the
"No, don't touch me. You disgust me. No, bella don't. Don't die, am sorry. Bella, no, no, no......" Charles screamed out from his nightmare."Ah, ah" He panted after waking up from a terrible nightmare or rather his terrible nightmare.His loud screams also woke Vivian who was on the bed with him naked."What happened?" She asked trying to touch Charles, plunge in confusions and worries."No, don't" He said and move away from her with his hands on his ear like he is trying to stop the voice from his head.*YOU MONSTER, YOU KILLED ME* He keep hearing voices in his head.Vivian stood up from the bed, wrapped the bed sheet on her body, and approached him not caring it might be dangerous in the way he is."It is alright" She said trying to calm him down."She said I killed her, she said am a monster. Am not a monster right? I didn't kill her right?" Charles asked pacing around the space as if he was a mad man no he is close to becoming
"Be my bride" Charles smirked while Summer blinked repeatedly in awe.Shocked by his response, she never expected him to agree that easily.It was more easy than she thought."What?" Charles said seeing that she kept shut. He took a step away from her, he put his hands inside his pocket."You don't want to?" He asked. "If you don't want to, then forget it...""No, of course I want to" Summer replied before he could finish his statement."I will marry you" She said and Charles smile but quickly wave it off."Ok Miss Shrap, my secretary will get back to you" he said while Summer scoffed in displeasure."Don't worry, I will contact you this time" He said as if he knows what she was thinking about."I hope so, Mr Eden. Till I see you" She faked a smile and left his sitting room.As soon as she got outside, she jumped in excitement.She is sure he will keep his promise this time, both the marriage and he will contact
"You must think you have won but dear big sis, the game have just start. Be careful, you might not win this battle" Summer words kept ringing inside Dora head.It kept disturbing her. What does she mean? Does she has an hidden card?"No, that can't be. She has no card, even her supporter aren't as much as her especially with her husband Edwin McCain" Dora lamented to herself.Could she be just bluffing? That is it she has to be bluffing?She has already won the fight, her father is going to give her his shares soon.So Summer has nothing to do but yet her words kept disturbing her.She knows her sister doesn't talk without a proof or something to back her up.If she has a supporter, who will that be? Who? She rack her brain trying to think of something but nothing came into mind."Love" Her husband said joining her on the bed and kissed her neck.She smiled in approach, "What is wrong?" He asked and she turned to him."
Charles opened his eyes and take Vivian's hands off him, "Get out" He tried not to raise his voice."Charles!!!" She called surprised by his actions."If it isn't me, then let me call you a girl" She suggested but he refused."Get out Vivian, please"She gritted her teeth and stood up, she went to where her shirt and bra was. She picked it and put it on, she saw as he took the drug.Why is he doing this? He is hurting himself for what?She picked the file on the floor and dropped it on his table, she turned to leave but he stopped her."Vivian" he called and she quickly turned to him hoping he has changed his mind."Call Miss Shrap, bring her to my penthouse" He ordered."Ok""And also when she is with me, I will like you to address me as Sir not Charles. If possible don't call me by my name even when we are alone" He ordered and she bit her lips annoyed by his words."Yes sir" She complied with
SummerWe arrived at Charles penthouse, I won't lie everything about him screams wealth. Is he trying to show off his wealth to me by asking me to come here" I scoffed at my thought.But I still find it somehow cute. I giggled and Vivian looked at me, I clearly scrum that smile off my face and put on my serious face."Please wait here, he will be here soon" She said and left me.'What the hell is wrong with her?' I thought and took a seat. Whenever she is with me she's always acting like she is in a battle. My thoughts was short-lived when Charles entered.I quickly stood up and adjusted myself. "Mr Eden" I called and stretch my hand for an handshake but he refused it.I clenched my fist together and faked a smile. "Follow me" He demanded and I did. I followed him to a small flower house in his penthouse."Have a seat" he said and I took my seat.Sec later, Vivian also entered. "Here is it, Mr Eden" Vivian said an
He doesn't want to hurt her, but with the way things are going. He is scared he might lose control."You should talk the rest with my secretary" Charles said and excused himself for his room.He got to his room and went straight to the drawer, he picked his drug and want to use it but angrily throw it away.It is up to no use, he has used it before. It is only once a day, and it was supposed to last for two hours. But yet he is aroused and it isn't even up to two hours. That is because of summer, why does she have to dress like that.Why don't she wear suit like she used to, she caused all this. God right now, he need someone's hole to stay inside.***"So when do I get to move in?" Summer asked Vivian whose mind wasn't with Summer. She is worried about Charles, is he alright? She needs to attend to him right now, or the worst might happen."Hello" Summer said bring Vivian back from her thoughts."You can move in, anytime you wan
